Abstract:
The first P‐to‐S receiver function study of mantle discontinuities beneath the Malawi and Luangwa rifts with unprecedented spatial coverage Normal MTZ thicknesses beneath most areas, precluding thermal upwelling as the dominant rifting mechanism The central Malawi rift is developing in a thick and strong lithosphere, leading to a wide rifted basin due to strain delocalization
